Napolean said so.....

In GBS's  (George Bernard Shaw), play (drama),  Napoleon, the French General, told another character to bring some Red ink for signing papers, whereupon the said character (An old man) said that no red ink was avlble., whereas some Red wine was there....would the same serve the General's purpose??  napoleon was taken aback... No, by all means..... red wine is absolutely essential for our soldiers..... he said, but I see that yr wife is a quarrelsome woman who is useless. Go , cut her into two pieces and bring the blood , for signing papers. 

The old man..... I know Blood is cheaper than wine.
This is pure satire. Shaw hated war to the core. In India today, at 10.14 A.M, a blast occurred in  Delhi  (High  Court area)   and  11 lives lost then & there...... about 50 injured. The death toll may rise.
I walked in the morning in Wireless Park....... I met Mr. Ganesh Das; Dada, Bou-di and myself met his daughter and son-in-law i.e  Jayati and Ramu, as I wrote already in my previous blogs. I have already met Mr. Ganesh Das a no. of times and I have also gone to his house and met his wife who is ailing, but mentally alert and strong. It is likely that all 3 of us will go to their house soon. By the way, their house is just near-by.
Broadband here in India , Kol. is really disturbing & I am retiring on account of the same, tonight.
